    Forgot to get a picture of our food but it was so good!! The portions for brunch were spot on and we joined the waitlist on here so we didn't have to wait at the restaurant. I was told to come here by a friend and I am so glad we did. I will absolutely come back! I had the hash skillet and it was good but I wish they put more hash on it. The Bloody Mary flight was also good, but they took the menu and didn't explain them or let us know which was which. Probably won't get that again.

    Biscuits and gravy w/ sausage links and fresh fruit.

    Friendly service, generous portions. Best biscuits and gravy I've had in a very long time! We were in town for a long weekend and wound up coming here two days in a row.

    This was my second visit to he location. My first visit was just so-so but we were starving due to having to fast for labs and Broken Yolk was near the lab draw facility. We had to wait to be seated as the hostess was feverishly trying to set up multiple tables by herself for a large party; it was a little uncomfortable to watch her trying so hard whilst many co-workers stood by as she was setting up everything up. We were finally seated and quickly received service. This feels like an IHOP inside almost...just a standard breakfast place motif. I ordered the Rancher omelet with home fries and an English muffin. Husband ordered a pancake short stack. Food came out relatively quickly and looked visibly delicious for the most part. The Rancher is full of bacon, homefries, green bell peppers, tomatoes, green onions and topped with sour cream. It was very dry and was overwhelmingly full of green peppers to the point that I couldn't even taste bacon. The omelet is begging for some cheddar cheese inside. I could only manage to eat half of it, after dousing it in ketchup. The home fries were barely cooked and woefully under seasoned. I would have loved to taste a roasted onion flavor with a crispy outside to these potatoes...none of which was found. The highlight was the English muffin which was delightfully toasted, fluffy and quite delicious. Thankfully hubby gave me more butter for the English muffin off his pancakes which elevated it to buttery. His pancakes looked amazing...fluffy, golden and hot...but they tasted like they were tangy? Almost like the buttermilk was "sourer" or something. He thought they were "fine" but couldn't finish them. It was $30 for our meals, without drinks. I would say for that amount the food should be good enough to come back. This place will not be a place we will seek out, unfortunately. There are some amazing breakfast and brunch options at a lower price point. Service was very friendly and attentive, which is why I felt bad giving Broken Yolk Cafe anything less than 3 stars.

    Hold the phone - I think that we could have the best hollandaise sauce in the Boise area now. The…read moreClassic Benedict is pretty amazing as a blend of flavors. The eggs were actually poached perfectly. Seriously, my mouth is watering just reflecting on the food. The toasted single ciabatta is something that I liked versus a couple English muffins. The smoked ham a tad salty but paired with the hollandaise very well. Ripe tomatoes. The greens for a side was my choice versus potatoes. I'll have to try the potatoes next time because this day was going to be hot and smokey, so I needed to keep it light. I drink coffee black, and the coffee was really good. On the service, as some have complained about, I can't really speak to that. I went in before work, so I was there at 7. By the time I left at 7:45, two more tables came in and one had already left. 9 or 10am on a Sunday is probably different. So the service was good for me. The decor was an updated nautical theme that I seen before. A few decades ago, I went to a First Watch in a land far away. When it was brought to the Boise area, I thought it would be interesting to have that seasonal approach option compared to fixed menu Cisco approach. And if you're good with a standard pancake, maple flavored syrup, a couple slices of bacon, and two plain scrambled eggs - do that. If you like something interesting, First Watch.

    We arrived to the restaurant in hopes of something really good but quickly were disappointed…read more Service was ok and the server was nice. The issues. I ordered the Chipotle Steak & Queso seasonal item. The presentation was nice but for the money I would never order again. When ordering you think of meat with the word steak. The 5-6 little pieces of steak hidden with all the potato and other items just was not satisfying at all for my hunger. The potatoes were undercooked with tough and chewy tortillas as well. Being a hash they should have a crispy bite to them not all soft and mushy. My partner was with me and had The Works Omelet and it was good but again the potatoes were mushy and nothing browned or crispy to them. The coffee was a bit bitter and when the server brought out water with the water glasses one of the was still dirty. Not something I would expect from a restaurant, when I worked as a server I looked at Everything I brought to the table for a guest when it came to glassware and utensils. So needless to say it will be a long time before if I ever come back to this place. I enjoy LePeep much better and have never had these issues, heck I have had better at IHop for the money I have spent here.
